There are certain fire safety and security standards that you will have to meet as a responsible business owner, and making sure that all people in a building are accounted for is one of the most important. It’s the basics of fire safety that you should know how many people are in a building at any one time, and you are aware of that number should you have to evacuate.

You may have a method of people signing themselves in, which will mean they are marking themselves in at reception. This might be by signing a book, or you may have an electronic means of them doing this. There is also the option of a key fob system, where people will be recorded automatically as they swipe in. If you have guests in the building, you will either need to allocate them temporary key fobs, or get them to sign in manually.
